This book is brilliant! I'm a bit of a beginner, but I was able to do one of the challenging blocks because the instructions are so easy. There is a section on ideas, and I cannot wait to get started on the Christmas cushion! 18 blocks make up a cushion, and it is easy to do two every evening; within a few months you have a full set of cushions! I'm sure the blocks can be made into other things as well, it just needs a little imagination.
